hearts

Proverbs 4:23
Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life.

"Whatever we let into our hearts will affect our lives. If we allow the principle of the Word to take root in our heart, we become like a tree planted by the stream that in times of drought remains steadfast and does not whither (Psalms 1:3). Allowing principles to be anchored in our hearts prevents us from swinging with the circumstances of life which will cause us instability."

SURPRISE!

Ever feel that way? Like when you least expect it, the Lord gives you something you couldn't imagine, surprise! He gives you a friend, maybe a job, or happiness, maybe hope or patience...but whatever it was, you could've sworn that it wouldn't happen in a million years. Well, if you haven't ever felt that way, I sincerely hope it happens to you ASAP. Cause it is AWESOME :)

I know in the next month, my life is going to look a lot different than it does now. I can't wait for what's in store. I'm praying for total independence though. I discovered how much I feed off of fellowship (not saying fellowship is bad, it's a great thing!) and not off of my own individual walk with the Lord. God has used people in my life before to teach me and model how to daily walk with Him. Surprisingly (here's my God surprise:) )they're back in my life to impact it once again. I like when in relationships I can take the back seat, and learn and be led but also when I can work, talk, and listen with someone with one common goal...both of us moving forward. Thank you God for this surprise.

God orchestrates everything SO perfectly. I know I say that all the time. But really, I can't get over how often people come and go in my life and I realize it's that way for a "bigger picture" reason...either for them to grow or for me, for them to learn something, or for me to. When I sit back and soak up everything that has happened, I begin to understand (or attempt to) what the Lord is doing..it gives me the most genuine "chill" feeling. Cause now, I don't have a care in the world (as it should be!), I understand the Lord, yet again, has something amazing up His sleeve :)


Non Preoccuparti, Sii Felice!

Beautiful and Empty

You fought the fight in me
You chased me down and finished the race
I was blind but now I see
Jesus You kept the faith in me
Awaiting, set apart like incense to Your heart
A libation I'm pouring out
Empty and beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Your love is a song

Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort? Galatians 3:3

Isn't it amazing that it's just that simple? Believe IN the Spirit, and that's all. Believe IN the creator of the Universe. Believe IN the Greatest Sacrifice. And what do we get after living our worthless, human, flesh filled, selfish life? Eternity with the Great I AM, the Alpha and Omega, beginning and end, Elohim and Yahweh. How humbling it is to know the greatest sacrifice was just to save me and you from the world. Even from the things of the world we still choose to live in even AFTER we have received this grace and this gift.

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:28-31


One, you still move me
Two, Three, you send chills right through me
Four, you keep me wanting more
Five, when I look into your eyes
Six, you're my best friend
Seven, that will never end
Eight, Nine, I don't know why, but thank God it happens every-time
By the time I get to 10, I can see how blessed I've been. I'll choose you all over again.
